I think this guy is taking the easy route out by using his buddy's DW to propose. He should really get creative and do something special for her, not just use all of your efforts and planning for his own means. It is kind of selfish and she may even be emabarrassed to tell her friends/family where and when he did it. Maybe if you tell him this angle he will change his mind? Good Luck!! I am in shock that anyone would even consider being "embarassed" by how you were proposed to, I mean, that doens't even calculate in my head. A man you love is asking you to be his wife ... who the F cares WHERE he asks this, or even HOW? Maybe I am just way too laid back about stuff like this, but you don't get engaged so you have a story to tell. You get engaged because you want to spend the rest of your life with someone. From the guy's perspective, anyone that would care that much about the proposal isn't someone I'd want to marry anyway! And for the record, I think someone mentioned that all of the "married" ladies say that the OP was being unreasonable by being upset about sharing "her" wedding week. I think it has more to do with your personality and character than it does your marital status. I wouldn't have cared if someone asked if they could get married on our wedding week, I still had a beautiful ceremony with the man I love ... that was my goal! Having someone share that special day would have only made it that much more special. Apparently I am in the minority.

I did it for you

how fun is that!? awesome!

Honestly, I'd be super excited that I get to be there for that special moment! And I think it was pretty cool of him to ask, since like someone else mentioned, it's their vacation too. Granted I don't really like attention, but I also don't see the big deal even if you do like attention - people will likely forget all about the engagement while they're at teh wedding. And if they don't ... so what!?

Here are just a few that I found when I searched. I see that some do mention gifts on a small budget. However, even though your question may not have been answered to your liking, the point is that it's better to post a new post in an existing thread rather than to create a new thread. That way we don't have tons of threads on the same topic, and the forum is more organized and information is easier to find for the next person. http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...r-groom-54173/ http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...e-groom-40398/ http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...ur-groom-3445/ http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...ictures-18536/

I know this question has been asked/answered many times - please try the search function!

I moved this thread to the right sub-forum, and am also closing it since there are plenty of threads where this is already discussed! Please check this out ... http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...-photos-33890/

I added the pictures for you so people didn't have to click on the links.

ummm, i wasn't even engaged that long! lol calm down, don't worry, and just start going down your list!

by any chance did you do a search? or maybe look at the 1 sticky thread in this sub forum? http://bestdestinationwedding.com/fo...-photos-33890/

it's best to upload to another site, then link to your pictures on here anyway. did you ever post your wedding pics?

welcome to the forum! p.s. i moved this to the newbie sub-forum

you may not have a choice on time to go over, like others said we went over with their daily tour that left at a certain time. it was earlier than i'd have liked, but oh well - it was worth it. and lunch is included in that price, or at least was when i did it - i'm sure it is, you get the same benefits the rest of the tour gets. though you get 1st choice on massage times and stuff!

pretty sure mine changed when he got there too - there's all sorts of messes to get into on the boat ride over!

Sending all of the positive thoughts I have your way (to your nephew, I suppose)! My daughter was born at 32 weeks and in the NICU for about 5 weeks - and she just turned 2 and is doing great. I saw a lot of "miracles" while in the NICU and I am hoping your little man does just as well!

we were told we could use the spa/massage area showers as well, so keep that in mind. and i sat outside when having my makeup done - the natural light and breeze were great! so that's another way to get more space. but i agree, it could get a little tight if you're all trying to get ready at once, but i wouldn't let that stop you.

welcome to the forum!

riiiight, i know math. (i actually saw your join date and went off of that - duh)

weird - now the size looks perfect!

I am going to add a poll for you so it's easier to see the results. Would you mind trying to make the pictures smaller? They're a little bigger than they should be - thanks! Oh, and for the record, I like #1!

yea we'd constantly be having to create sub-forums as time goes on that that's just an administrative nightmare! i think a thread for a date or theme makes more sense.
